That's the problem. Those have a spotty history of being correct.

Latest update has Hillary up almost 300,000 in Florida
Does not mean anything as of yet.
I prefer the 538 model of waiting to wait on actual results and then taking the data from there.

Looks like the Trump lawsuit in NV got thrown out in a crash and burn fashion. I still this as the start of many more to come.

Since it was a moronic case with no basis in reality, that is the correct result.

Does this matter? Do people vote based on who called them or stopped by their house? I didn't vote for either of these two crooks and that wouldn't have changed if someone called me and told me how great their candidate was.

I know I don't answer the phone unless I recognize the number, so that wouldn't have any effect on me. And if someone knocked on my door to talk to me about either candidate, it'd be a toss-up whether they got a hearty "GFY" or a more polite version of that "GFY".
